Winter Again

     I think the thing that bugs me most about Daylight Savings Time is that it makes wintertime darkness hit abruptly instead of sneaking up.  One day it's still light at dinnertime and the next day, bang!  Dark!

     Every year, I realize all over again how poor my night vision is.  I'm grateful there are streetlights along most of my routes to and from the various work locations.

     The other interesting thing is that darned thermostat. The house used to be only a little chilly at 65°F.  Now even 68° feels too cold.  It must be out of calibration.  Yes, that's got to be it.

  2. From personal experience, I find that I need more heat to be comfortable as I get older (declining circulation).

  3. This would make more sense if we were ON DST. We're not.

    1. No, dear. I take issue with the *sudden* *change* in the Fall that moves sunset an hour earlier. Were you not understanding how it works? Here.
